Set at the base of Linville Gorge, Lake James State Park’s Paddy’s Creek Area is a go-to for easy lake days and low-key camping. Reserve one of 33 drive-in tent sites (up to six people per site), then spend your daylight hours hopping between hiking and biking trails, swimming and paddling on the lake. Ranger-led weekend programs are posted online and free to join, making it simple to add a little extra discovery to your stay.
